Works

In a 2017 published paper entitled, Characteristics of Nanocrystallite-CdS Produced by Low-Cost Electrochemical Technique for Thin Film Photovoltaic Application: The Influence of Deposition Voltage, Eze studied the characteristics of five nanocrystallite-CdS thin films within a timed environment. The X-ray results showed the shapes and thickness of the crystallite. Further analysis also discusses the behavior of factions of the findings.
